Have to say I’m looking forward to this one. As the song says ‘CHEWBACCA, What a Wookie’!Have to say I’m looking forward to this one. As the song says ‘CHEWBACCA, What a Wookie’!

Now even though I love Chewie as a character it occurred to me I couldn’t remember what colour he was and what the pattern of his fur is. So off to Google for a reference image!

I’ve quickly realised that the main fur colour is a lot more red / orange than I thought and I don’t have a paint that matched so I had to grab some brown / orange and yellow and practice some alchemy!

I should point out and it should come as no surprise that’s the layers were built up by drybrushing the colours over the base layer to build them up

Standard Brainmatter Beige drybrush followed by a 50/50 soft tone / wash medium all over (forgot to take the photo!) then a 50 / 50 dark tone / wash medium on the Bowcaster, leather and on the darkest parts of fur

Finally a dip in the basing mix and a Matt coat and he’s ready to tear of some arms!
